Lion and the Lamb
by Bethel Music
Theology & Meaning
A declaration drawn from Revelation 5 contrasting the Lion of Judah with the Lamb who was slain—both images revealing the fullness of Christ's character. Emphasizes that creation and all beings bow before His name.
Worship Leadership Tips
A naturally worshipful, mid-tempo response song. Works well after a teaching on the character of Christ or the Book of Revelation. The chorus is simple enough for first-time congregations to join by the second repeat.
Arrangement Tips
Often performed with a worshipful, unhurried feel. Start on piano and acoustic. The full-band build should feel organic rather than produced. Chorus ('He's roaring out of heaven') can be driven rhythmically. Ends in awe and quiet.
